I would roll with Ullmark
Rhino is out another game
I would try Quinn, but the Coach loves the Giraffe
Okposo shouldn't be playing the 1st game of a back to back, let alone the 2nd
And yes think they stay together
He should, but who knows with Krueger

I think they're going with Hutton.

It would be fun to see Quinn get a game.

Okposo should not play again anytime soon.

I doubt we see tage tomorrow.

What better way to bring in asplund or mittlefat.

Quinn would be a pleasant surprise

At least we get Hall/Staal/Cozens

That’s a plus

- sbroads24


Staal with goals in 3 outta 4 games i believe
He’s been playing better a slow start

I see the sky is still falling even with the sabres in 4th.


Finally broke Eichel and Hall up, would should have been day one. All that is left to do, is move Skinner up to line 2, and we can have a legit top 9

Not sure why so much female doging about Oloffson here - I’ve watched every game and I think he’s been our most consistent forward. His forechecking has been great and he’s not being knocked off the puck this year like last year. Other thoughts:

Need more 5 on 5 production from Jack and Hall. Jack has been a turnover machine but was more disciplined today

I’m a bit underwhelmed by Hall but I think better days are ahead

So Thompson is benched cuz he sucks snd when ralph brings him back he plays with jack (until demoted) and Plays PP2 (until denoted). I really don’t need to see him ever again. If Reinhart can’t go, mittlestadt?

15-13-20 line is surprisingly good. Brings some energy and much improved on the PK, though Ulmark has been our best PKer this year

Cozens is solid, would like to see him with Jack. He is good with puck possession and isn’t getting knocked off the puck a la Thompson.

Dahlin is another whipping boy here but since his benching I think he’s been very good. Risto and mccabe have been excellent for the most part Th is year

Skinner has to be given a chance on Line 1 or 2 doesn’t he? Other than a couple of stupid penalties he looks like he’s been defensively responsible

I don't believe Rieder - Eakin - Sheahan is line.

I believe the lines have been Rieder - Eakin - Okposo and Skinner - Lazar - Sheahan.

Skinner did finish the game playing on the 1st line. Olofsson set him up perfectly, but Skinner forgot that Sticks are used in hockey to.

After watching it again a few more times, I believe if Reinhart was the one who made that pass instead of Olofsson, it would've been a goal as Skinner would've been expecting Reinhart to pass there, instead of expecting Olofsson to shoot. That's on Skinner for the bad read, but I'm convinced that's why he moved out of the way instead of being in position for the pass.

Was okposo a healthy scratch today?
